The Academy of Sciences Malaysia (ASM) hopes to broaden the awareness - and enormous potential - of art science with the ArtScience Prize 2022 exhibition at Balai Seni Maybank at Menara Maybank in Kuala Lumpur.

According to the ASM ArtScience Initiative chairperson, Emerita Professor Tan Sri Dr Mazlan Othman, art science is a subject that motivates people to look at the human experience of nature and society in two different worlds, the artistic and the scientific.
